I have a weird problem , the following code :
$str = "נסיון" // <--- Hebrew chars
echo mb_detect_encoding ($str)."<br><br><br>";
$str = iconv (mb_detect_encoding($str),'UCS-2BE',$str);
echo mb_detect_encoding ($str)."<br><br><br>";
This will output :
UTF-8
UTF-8
This code is written in a file that's encoded (using Notepad++) in UTF-8 Without BOM, trying other encodings and didn't work.
I also tried converting the string using :
$str = mb_convert_encoding($str,'UCS-2BE');
But that didn't work either. Any insights?
